Hi gang,

as I didn't get a response on the last question I bought a laptop 
with Vista and have managed to get it working. Even if no one is 
listening :-) I thought I should do a quick report.

Vista works /better/ with Zebedee SMB tunneling than 2000 and XP. The 
reason is that it doesn't bind port 445 by default to every network 
adapter (or so it seems); you can thus tunnel 445 only and get fully 
functional SMB. Yay.

There might be a tutorial coming up on this. I am quite happy, 
because this means I don't have to research other encrypted tunnels 
but can happily continue my Zebedee SMB endeavours. :-)
